  • the image storage device 100 includes an agent that generates an original image, generates a first hash value for the original image, and checks whether the first hash value is changed before the original image is copied.
  • the original image loses its value as evidence when any changes are made to the original image due to certain manipulations because such changes indicate that the original image is counterfeited. In this case, the original image is not copied. However, when the original image is not counterfeited, the original image is still worth being used as evidence, the original image may be copied.
  • the image storage device 100 checks whether the first hash value is changed before the original image is copied so as to determine whether the original image is counterfeited.
  • the agent intactly copies a hash value which is not changed. Also, when changes such as damage, change, deletion, and correction are made to the original image via local connection or remote connection, a counterfeit original image may have a changed hash value, and when the counterfeit original image is copied, the changed hash value is copied.
  • a process of checking whether an original image is counterfeited is to verify that, when the original image is copied, a duplicate image has authentication and integrity.

  • the image storage device 100 always stores the original image in a volume unit, not a file unit. However, since it is unnecessary to provide the image collecting device 200 with a portion of the original image, which is not used as evidence, the agent changes the original image to be stored in a file unit when the image collecting device 200 copies the original image, thereby generating the first hash value.
  • the image collecting device 200 includes a standard time module, and when the original image in the image storage device 100 is copied, the image collecting device 200 generates a time correction value, which corresponds to a difference between standard time measured by the standard time module and time measured by the image storage device 100, and a duplicate image including the first hash value. When the duplicate image is transmitted, the duplicate image is automatically deleted after the transmission is completed.
  • the reason why the image collecting device 200 includes the standard time module is that, since points in time measured by respective image storage devices 100 are slightly different from one another, the image collecting device 200 generates the time correction value corresponding to the difference between the standard time and the time of each image storage device 100 by comparing the standard time with the time of the image storage device 100, and thus, each image storage device 100 obtains a duplicate image based on the standard time.

  • the image collecting device 200 collects the original image which is generated by the image storage device A at 12:02 reflecting the time correction value of +2 minutes thereto, the original image which is generated by the image storage device B at 11:59 reflecting the time correction value of -1 minute thereto, and the original image which is generated by the image storage device C at 12:01 reflecting the time correction value of +1 minute thereto, it is considered that original images captured and generated at the same time are copied.
  • the reason why the duplicate images are automatically deleted after the duplicate images finish being transmitted is to prevent the duplicate images from being used for other purposes except for collection of evidence by the police or prosecution. Therefore, the duplicate images are automatically deleted after being transmitted to the server 300.
